Steering stem


Recommended Posts

What are the taller riders using. The banshee doesn't feel comfortable and i need to do something about it for handling and safety. The quad has been rolled and the upper frame is tweaked as taking the gas tank off requires a bit of wrestling. So i dont know what to expect or if i can easily fix that issue... thanks

the steering hoop is bent back, muscle lots of it to get it close to right. (I hooked my bike up to a tree and used a come along hooked to my truck to pull that hoop up close to straight.)

 

you can buy a taller stem, buy bars that have a taller handle position or get some bar risers.  But keep in my you might need longer cables and/or front brake hose with that mod....

on the frame or truck?

on the Banshee frame I looped a tow strap on the top of the hoop, On the truck I hooked it to the pintle hook in the receiver hitch.

Hooking it to the tree I used two straps basket weaved through the middle of the frame attached to a short tow chain wrapped aroung the trunk of the tree.

 

I should have taken pictures.....
